You must be having issues, because I still have artwork in the ground in the back..

Unless you're being vaguely personal.

I don't have forum blocking on for anybody so I can BBS mod.

Back to topic, you can't use a service and bitch that all you see is grey - while simultaneously providing nothing to the website you are using. If you want to see something, turn off your adblock.

I wasn't bitching about it. I actually like the simplicity. I'd much rather see nothing on the sides than to see a gigantic ad.

What about the last April Fool's day gag? That was nothing. For a given value of nothing.

it was just blindingly bright.

It hurt my eyes. Dark nothing is a lot better than bright nothing.

Shit that drives me wild about light: it blinds you if you look at.
Shit that drives me wild about the dark: nothing is there, but you can't see through it.

Black and white complement each other. If either one dominates, it will be uncomfortable to read.

Something feels off about this recent development.

Only headers are orange, everything else is still grey.

Thanks to you and your ilk, it's come to this situation where there are large side ads even on non-frontpages; how does it feel, wimp?

Aside from that I wouldn't consider "you are less shit than I originally thought you were" a compliment, you simultaneously mention three other BBS mods as substandard, only because they got on your bad side somehow.

I'm not sure if you did your intentions any favours when you said that "there's hope for you yet" to someone who has been a BBS moderator for many years.

TOASty is a delightful fella.

EDIT: I wish the BBS really did have #trending because then we'd have all the hot topics all the time.

My connection went tits up and I just got back on.

The side bar adds were for Heroes of the Storm. At least I think it was, had Warcraft and Starcraft characters lined up on the sides. There might be more, I dunno.
